NFL
Continued from page IB
set a team record this season. “We can run
and run and run, then I can go underneath,
and Plaxico Burress can go deep. We’re not
easy to stop, but we don’t seem too exciting
because the offense is based on running.”
Their opponents have some balance, too.
Philadelphia is a defensive-oriented
team. But in the last month, since quarter
back Donovan McNabb took to scrambling
again, the offense has come alive. The 33
points the Eagles scored in Chicago were
the most all season against the Bears, who
had allowed 17 points or fewer in their pre
vious seven games.
And Philadelphia will have to score in St.
Louis — all the more so because their best
comerback, Troy Vincent, has a groin injury
that could keep him out or limit his mobility.
New England is also a good defensive
team — coach Bill Belichick has been one
of the NFL’s more innovative defensive
minds over the last two decades.
But Tom Brady threw for 312 yards in
the snow Saturday night in a 16-13 over
time victory over Oakland, rallying New
England from 10 points down in the
fourth quarter with the help of a replay
call that turned a Patriots’ fumble into an
incomplete pass.
And the Steelers seemed a little puzzled
Monday about having to play New
England after disposing of their bitter rival
from Baltimore.
“We don’t know these guys,” Ward said.
"We know Baltimore and the Jets and
Miami and a lot of the other playoff teams.
This team, we have to learn.”
Maybe that’s why the Steelers are
favored by just 7 1/2 points.
It used to be the end of a great night.
It could soon be the start of a great day.
At Ernst & Young, we believe that when you
wake up in the morning, you should be excited
about the day ahead. The challenges of the
workplace should keep you stimulated, your
capabilities should be stretched, and your horizons continually
broadened. Because only when our people grow, both professionally
and personally, do we grow as a company. Oh happy day!
